Re: Cleaning issue
It's worse, I cleaned the damn thing and found some slight marks that need more attention before I put some decent wax on it, despite my aversion to such things I am going to do it again and maybe clay it as well, bo11ocks.

Re: Black Roof Lining?
17? I hate you, you impertinent child! I had to make do with a MKII Escort that cost me the princely sum of twenty five pounds, or was it groats? My aged memory fails me, the roof lining on that was like a pram hood.
Bah humbug.
Bah humbug.

Re: Squeaking Armrest
A bit of silicone lubricant in there would resolve the issue, they are just making money out of VW, I suspect the new part will suffer the same issue ultimately.

I go to the hand car wash once a month, anymore than that is overkill.

Re: Colour MFD, anyone got it
So someone made a video of that and put music to it? It is safe to say that the last time they were in the same bed as a woman was when they were in their mommas belly.
